Our December Concert 2010 is on Saturday 11 December 2010 at St John the Evangelist, Goose Green
Less well known than The Creation, but just as witty and inventive, Haydn’s journey through the year is if anything even more exuberant than its more famous sibling. The composer’s gift for brilliant word-painting is given full rein in this wonderfully colourful score, which includes everything from hunting horns, tipsy peasants and thunderstorms to glittering winter landscapes and a gentle nightfall after the storm – even croaking frogs make an appearance!
As ever, DCS will be joined by a line-up of outstanding soloists and top professional players to perform this most charming and likeable of oratorios.
Next Concert: 11th December 2010
